The 46-year-old actress said her children Caleb and Liv were more excited about her appearing in 'The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part One'. "They could take or leave the Oscars. 'Mockingjay' was a big deal!"

Despite being considered a front-runner ahead of the prestigious ceremony, Moore is determined not to get swept up by the buzz either.

"I try to take it one day at a time. Otherwise, I get overwhelmed," she said. The actress played a professor grappling with Alzheimer's disease in 'Still Alice'.
